About this cottage rental
This is a fabulously styled cottage is set back 30 yards from the Gulf ocean (one house off the beach as the crow flies) close to the white sandy beaches that make Anna Maria Island so famous.
Large open rooms, this cottage has lots of sunlight and a charming style that will kickoff the perfect vacation. The modern kitchen is fully loaded with a dishwasher, microwave, stove, fridge...and of course, there's an ice maker! Lots of storage for longer stays makes this cozy kitchen easy to enjoy.
When you walk in the front door, you walk through our Florida room with its' cute bunk beds. This is a great place for the kids to kick-back after a day by the sea.
The comfortable living room offers a great place to relax indoors from the sun and you have wifi and television to help keep you occupied. Fans in the living and bedroom mean you can enjoy the perfect weather without sacrificing airflow. But hey, if you like it cooler, the AC is always available. Need more room, the couch is a pull-out which can come in handy.
The bathroom has a tub for soaking and a marble-topped vanity as well as custom one-of-a-kind touches. The fluffy towels are all 100% cotton and will give you that fresh hotel feel.
Your bedroom comes with a king bed that's not too firm, not too soft, and 450-thread count cotton sheets. There are bedside tables lamps, a large closet and of course your own private television.
Just think... when the waves pick up, you can walk to the beach in around 2 minutes down the road or back alley, or why not listen to the ocean from your private patio which is a great place to relax all day. Feeling like a BBQ? Kick on the grill and kickback. This house has everything you could possibly need to enjoy time by the sea.
Your boutique chic, adorable cottage is just a 4-minute walk to coffee shops, the only late-night watering hole on the island, the local Walgreens, and a bike rental store so you never need to drive anywhere. But if you did want to head out, the free trolley that runs up and down the island make getting all over a cinch!
Lastly, there is a washer & dryer located on the back of the property— it's shared by both this cottage and the one next to it.

We loved this cottage and enjoyed AMI very much! Cottage was very clean and well appointed- beach gear, kitchen items, etc. Location is great too- in the middle of the island in a quiet neighborhood, but an easy drive to either end of island. Loved that we could walk to the nearby shopping center with a few restaurants and retail stores like Walgreens and Publix. The walk to the beach was easy, basically a block and a half either direction. The beach wagon was a huge bonus! The beach was not crowded as it was neighborhood people plus the people from the 10 parking spots at the access. Manatee Beach and others were way more crowded that this area.
A few things to note- This is a front to back duplex. This is the front part. So the people in the back part walk past your bedroom and living room windows (sidewalk against house) to get to their front door. Thankfully we had quiet neighbors that didn’t walk back and forth a bunch. That would be annoying because you could hear them easily as they walked by. Laundry is shared, so you walk on same sidewalk against their windows to get to shared shed in their private courtyard to access laundry. This is fine, with courteous neighbors. The bunk room is cute, although hot with all the windows, and probably not suited for kids above age 10 due to weight on the bunk bed.
We definitely would rent this cottage again.

Very clean, safe, short walk to the beach. Only minor issue was the TV not working however, this did not affect our stay. The outside shower to rinse sandy feet and beach chairs were great! Would definitely stay here again!!

The house is very cute and is in a great location. We used it during the day mostly but the king bed was used two nights and it was very comfortable. Chairs and cart for the beach were nice.

This place was so cute and had just about everything we needed. Short walk to the beach. Our entire stay was quiet and peaceful. Cell service was sketchy in the cottage, but we were on vacation, right? :)

Ami family vacation
We had a blast! Look forward to it every year the property was great location was excellent it was fully furnished and equipped with everything we needed just a few things I would recommend would be updating the bed mattress on all the beds not a comfortable sleep at all and spray for ants other than that it was a great time.

Fabulous!
We had a great week! My only suggestion would be to upgrade the pullout couch. (or offer an airbed option) It was not great for sleeping. Otherwise, it was perfect location, clean, love the beach theme, well stocked! We loved it!

Great location, Quaint, Clean, Well managed
The place is adorable online and better in person. The manager was awesome with great ideas to help us have a wonderful time. Everything we needed was there, like beach chairs, umbrella, towels and wagon to carry it all. A block from the beach, close to groceries. Definitely recommend!!

Best vacation cottage!
Clean, adorable, comfortable cottage just around the corner from private beach access! So much better than we could have ever expected, in the perfect location just minutes from everything! Golf cart rental, Walgreens and Publix right around the corner, a blissfully quiet neighborhood and perfect access to the beach! I would stay here every time!

Great location and just the right size
Great communication with the property manager and the perfect location for the price. We booked this as a last minute trip and couldn’t have been more pleased. It’s the ideal location for a couple or even a couple with two smaller children.

Clean, cute cottage and great location
Location of the cottage was very close to the beach, just a few steps. Very clean. Would recommend blinds in the kitchen and curtains in the bedroom as there is another unit on the back half of the cottage and their walkway is outside the bedroom window. Listing did not state the washer/dryer was shared outdoors in a shed with the other unit. Wasn't easy to use when the other people were also using it. We had to open the gate to their patio and walk through their patio area which is an invasion of privacy. I think this could easily be fixed by adding a separate shed area inside the patio of this until for a washer/dryer. I would also recommend a new mattress. It is too firm and made alot of noise just turning in the bed. The walls are thin, we could hear the TV in the bedroom from the other unit in the cottage. Owner was easy to contact and very friendly. Loved the location. I would consider staying again. It just needs a few things to make the stay more comfortable.

Absolute perfection!
The cottage was perfect! Exactly as pictured/described. Everything you need for a lovely get away! We thoroughly enjoyed the enclosed side yard/patio and spent every morning and evening - before and after the beach - out there. We were in town for a family wedding and had several family members stop in to visit. All remarked how perfect they thought our accommodations were! The house is just 2 blocks - easy walking distance - from shopping - grocery/clothing/pharmacy/ liquor, as well as 2 breakfast spots, a bar, and a schnitzel haus! And the most exquisite beach is just around the corner! We could not have asked for more. Can't wait to come back!

Beach bums hidden gem
Great location for a week at the beach. Super equipped kitchen for those who like to cook. Quiet but needs to be listed as a duplex rather than a cottage. The other half was also rented and created some privacy issues. Washer and dryer access is a bit a strange as we must access it via the patio of the other unit. Also suggest that the owner corrects the squeaky mattress and they need to provide a window shade for privacy on the side patio door. I would still return for a future stay.

Perfect Location
Perfect location, the beach is literally right behind you, there is just some condos in between, not a far walk at all. Cottage was cute as a button and immaculate with everything you need. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
